Both are opposite ways of creation. The moment a person takes life he gets involved in worldliness. It is rare that a person is born without worldliness. Such persons are indeed Godly. Worldly persons desire sense pleasures. Happiness has no definition. Wherever the mind is engrossed in, it is believed to be happiness. Happiness is a state of mind. Happiness is borderless. There is no end to happiness. The birth-death-birth cycle as expressed in the saying "punarabi jananam punarabi maranam" is the cause of this endless happiness. But the spiritual path is totally different. I am always immersed in spirituality. Those who want to realize Me must reach Me only through this path of spirituality. They alone can get My vision. In spirituality there is no pleasure. There is only Bliss. This is also called the Bliss experienced by the soul. If the state of this Bliss is also transcended then one reaches the final state of Eternal Bliss. It is in this final state one realizes the ultimate truth called Brahman. Those who have progressed through various stages of spirituality reaching this final state merge in Me.</font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:10pt"><font face="tahoma, sans-serif"> </font></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;line-height:18.15pt"><span> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;margin-left:178pt"><b><span style="font-size:12pt">Have faith in My Sayings</span></b></p></div></div> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11895494938844322954noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4734656553588221876.post-34310924627839037232017-05-18T05:45:00.000+05:302017-05-18T05:46:09.664+05:30GURUVAAR PRARTHNA - 18/05/2017<p class="mobile-photo"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge_K33Dgpff4aHhNuqWHdW5hMXKU-opBMCERPdSQFFV21_4BB0ednIhh13nGSZfEGnEbQ_U0DiFZ-0GbGRnUnONfWCrmnsYF52twbsg5YnZAd-o86Pic_iew-yeW7rwKWH9VEd0tpZgz0/s1600/sai379-769666.jpg"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge_K33Dgpff4aHhNuqWHdW5hMXKU-opBMCERPdSQFFV21_4BB0ednIhh13nGSZfEGnEbQ_U0DiFZ-0GbGRnUnONfWCrmnsYF52twbsg5YnZAd-o86Pic_iew-yeW7rwKWH9VEd0tpZgz0/s320/sai379-769666.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_6421262035722671122" /></a></p><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:rgb(7,55,99)"><p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif;color:black">GURUVAAR PRARTHNA - 18/05/2017<span></span></span></u></b></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif;color:black"><br></span></u></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif"><span> </span></span></i></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif"><span> </span></span></i></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif">Our Beloved Sadguru Sainath, please accept our humble prayers on this Holy Day of Guruvaar.

These disciplines are laid out only for the good of humanity. By adopting good ways of disciplinary life, bad effects of actions are removed. Do not forget that Vedas and Shastras (The Holy Hindu scriptures) repeatedly impress on the good aspects of such disciplines. While following such disciplines, though you may observe the three aspects of the doer, the action and the result, remember that all three are My identity only. If you realize that the creator, preserver and the eliminator are all but Me, only then you will not have the desire for the result of your actions. Even the result of your action is only Me. Therefore whoever remembers Me and carries out their duties by offering them to Me, for such persons My grace and protection will always be available. Therefore if anybody keeps meditating on Me always, their bad deeds reach My feet, leaving them free from the effects. Develop the attitude that you are My personification. I and you are not different. You are but My reflection. If you firmly believe that whatever you see is Me residing in that form, then I am truly yours!</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:10pt"><span> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:18.15pt"><span> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;margin-left:178pt"><b>Have faith in My Sayings</b></p></div></div> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11895494938844322954noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4734656553588221876.post-26723830570174251962017-05-11T05:55:00.001+05:302017-05-11T05:55:51.050+05:30GURUVAAR PRARTHNA - 11/05/2017<p class="mobile-photo"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheMdkZJoh8SQd6bgj7xh7OrhyphenhyphenBvdip48a0k2cmObxFJXv7iLVEMvqTepSR1zIWyejiwtucRk6XbumBbBNo6t7QvJJ10wn8RPy1CxUdc03tboBTmXG_ZZ0zmlTk1_egGjtVTsRrfnVKp6M/s1600/sai87-751051.jpg"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheMdkZJoh8SQd6bgj7xh7OrhyphenhyphenBvdip48a0k2cmObxFJXv7iLVEMvqTepSR1zIWyejiwtucRk6XbumBbBNo6t7QvJJ10wn8RPy1CxUdc03tboBTmXG_ZZ0zmlTk1_egGjtVTsRrfnVKp6M/s320/sai87-751051.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_6418666936356102978" /></a></p><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:rgb(7,55,99)"><p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif;color:black">GURUVAAR PRARTHNA - 11/05/2017<span></span></span></u></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif;color:white">.<span></span></span></u></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif;color:black"><span><span style="text-decoration-line:none"> </span></span></span></u></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif;color:black"><span><span style="text-decoration-line:none"> </span></span></span></u></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif">Our Beloved Sadguru Sainath, please accept our humble prayers on this Holy Day of Guruvaar.

What does He look like? What is His Divine Form? These are questions that everyone long to understand. Let us set that aside. If you understand where He dwells then you can realize the attributes of His existence. In fact temples are utilized to worship only the Form aspect of the Almighty. In reality God dwells within the temple of our hearts. If the heart is pure and unalloyed then our mind will progress towards the true human values. Such is the effect of the presence of God in one's heart. Through those human values, the highest qualities of mercy, dharmic oriented life, following the path of truthful existence, empathy and sympathy with all living beings, true love towards others and such other noble qualities will automatically sprout and blossom. These are the qualities that are to be revered as the true form of God. How could God have only one Form? Whatever is the noble quality one possesses that in itself is the true Form of God. In reality whoever has these great and idealistic qualities are Divinity themselves.</font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:10pt"><span><font face="tahoma, sans-serif"> </font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:18.15pt"><span><font face="tahoma, sans-serif"> </font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:160pt"><b><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">Have faith in My Sayings</font></b></p></div></div> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11895494938844322954noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4734656553588221876.post-28884574645407194362017-05-04T05:45:00.001+05:302017-05-04T05:45:35.422+05:30GURUVAAR PRARTHNA - 04/05/2017<p class="mobile-photo"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcQzHQCdd36w9TJlAf7LzxL7lNNVSVw3fehUkIiF2TOt0yMAESoyqnbibIGdKFTOqxOeII6M1Re58wZNz3S2L4A-fle_afbjakrdg8f1U6EBWUwf_6jlIiK6KUwmdJqkAHxv2yNEOvbEg/s1600/Old+rare+picture-735423.jpg"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcQzHQCdd36w9TJlAf7LzxL7lNNVSVw3fehUkIiF2TOt0yMAESoyqnbibIGdKFTOqxOeII6M1Re58wZNz3S2L4A-fle_afbjakrdg8f1U6EBWUwf_6jlIiK6KUwmdJqkAHxv2yNEOvbEg/s320/Old+rare+picture-735423.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_6416066696246434994" /></a></p><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:rgb(7,55,99)"><p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif;color:black">GURUVAAR PRARTHNA - 04/05/2017<span></span></span></u></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif;color:white">.<span></span></span></u></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif;color:black"><span><span style="text-decoration-line:none"> </span></span></span></u></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif;color:black"><span><span style="text-decoration-line:none"> </span></span></span></u></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif">Our Beloved Sadguru Sainath, please accept our humble prayers on this Holy Day of Guruvaar.

Through rationale you can not fathom Me. My actions will be apparently contradictory, secretive and beyond comprehension. In whichever way a person worships Me, I can correspond to him. Where there is faith I will be there with that faith. My very embodiment is faith. My miracles are unique experiences themselves. For some the experience will be externally perceptible and for others the same may be latent. You will not be able to understand the inner meaning of such experiences. I am a witness to your many past, present and future lives. Based on individual karma I bestow the appropriate result. If you understand that whatever the result bestowed on you is My will then you have understood Me. Therefore if you worry about unfulfilled desires and non availability of your wants there is no use of the same. In order that you get salvation and to make you realize My presence, I perform My miracles.

Therefore, he had come to this conclusion.</p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">Just then, he saw something moving near his own pillow. " Abdul, bring the lamp, the lamp here ", Amir shouted.</p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">When the lamp was brought outside, a large serpent was seen coiled there. He was dazzled by the light and he began to move his hood up and down.</p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">It was killed immediately. He felt very grateful to Baba, and thought how extraordinary this method was of making us aware.</p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">That mention of the ghost and calling for the lamp was only a kind of trick to caution the devotees of the danger and to save them from the calamity.</p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">There are a number of such stories about serpents in Baba's biography which could be described. But then the book would become very voluminous. Therefore, I have to curtail them.</p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">" Snakes and serpents are Narayan, but they should be worshipped from a distance ", says Saint Tukaram.</p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">He calls them wicked and deserving of a beating with a shoe. However, the opinion is not unanimous and one is left in doubt as to the mode of one's treatment of them.</p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">One acts according to one's nature and in keeping with God's will. This is the essence of it all.</p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">There is only one answer to this question. All beings are equal and non-violence is always the best. Baba, too, had the same explanation.</p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">Whether it be a scorpion or a snake, God is within them too. If He does not wish to harm, no harm will be done by them.</p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">The whole universe is under the command of God. Nothing here is independent. This is Baba's knowledge through experience. But we cannot accept that because of our ego.</p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">Once a scorpion fell into a pond. As he was drowning and heading to the bottom, a man happily clapped and said: "Oh, you likewise harm us! "</p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">Another, hearing the clapping, came running to the bank of the pond and saw the scorpion bobbing up and down, while drowning. He was moved and took pity on him.</p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">He went near it and picked up the scorpion between his fingers. But the scorpion, according to its nature, jumped up and stung his fingers.</p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">In such a case, our knowledge is limited. We are entirely slaves of destiny (God) who bestows us with intelligence. Everything that takes place in our lives is according to His wish.</p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p> <p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">Different people have varied experiences. I will also tell my own experience.

Do not think that such opportunities will keep repeating. Do not feel disgusted that a beggar is approaching you for money or for food. Even if you externally perceive the same as beggary, you do not realize that he is taking over your sanchita karma. Those who are hungry do not have any form for their hunger. He only has suffering. I am that form of hunger. In fact I am the root cause of the hunger itself. I do not accept anything with the intention of getting any favor in return. All My actions are centered towards rendering service to humanity. When I provide you an opportunity such as the above, at your doorstep to wash away your sins do not dwell on the greed of wealth, property and such worldly matters. This will ensure that My help is not denied to you. If you give a morsel of food, your wealth will not be diminished. Similarly, love and sympathy shown towards other forms of life will also reach Me. I am bound by such pure Love. This is the simplest path to reach Me.

I have been trying to redeem you from that situation. Still nobody listens. Will Allah come to your rescue only as and when you want? This very moment is in your control. Just listen to Me carefully. Soak your thoughts with My blissful miracles. Ponder deeply over them. Compare the wealth of joy you will derive from such act of spirituality to the passing worldly happiness. You will then realize the inner meaning of My words. Will there be any eternal and everlasting happiness other than thinking of Me? Whatever be your daily chores they will not be affected by My thoughts. On the other hand My thoughts will strengthen your efforts. I will be of support to you.

There is a need to plough even such a rich soil. The soil also has to be watered regularly. Proper planting of saplings are essential. Due care has to be taken while tending the plants. If you undertake such efforts then good harvest can be expected. Your heart is also like fertile soil. Nobody is born with a poor heart. When selfishness overcomes the mind then weakness prevails. When selfish desires are not fulfilled, then evil qualities arise. Such evil qualities become the root cause for bad events. This ultimately leads to destruction. Therefore, whoever is far removed from lust, evil and other such negative qualities will become a divine person. If you want to ensure such negative qualities do not sprout in your mind then, it is imperative that you keep Me in your heart always. By the pristine purity of My Form, cleanse your heart and keep it sacred. Then you become totally pure. I will be ever present in the minds of those people who are not weak but pure in their heart. I fulfill all their desires. Certainly such individuals get complete peace of mind.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:10pt"><span> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:10pt"><span> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:10pt"><span> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:11.5pt"><span> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:160pt"><b><span style="font-size:12pt">Have faith in My Sayings</span></b></p></div></div> Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11895494938844322954noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4734656553588221876.post-56830164869763642762017-04-06T05:35:00.001+05:302017-04-06T05:35:45.500+05:30GURUVAAR PRARTHNA - 06/04/2017<p class="mobile-photo"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjf566HJAym69QavcB4DJ8kCj2aCmh4l4cUhTDQSuScH3ArJhKx1bb2fV7k_6CllyR-bTcAtKcdTQokBJeQikNow_wCFlLgGx10J7zP5wsvpukajySESs6QwysT9Ic7KK23KOJ4HnwpTrY/s1600/sai60-745501.jpg"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjf566HJAym69QavcB4DJ8kCj2aCmh4l4cUhTDQSuScH3ArJhKx1bb2fV7k_6CllyR-bTcAtKcdTQokBJeQikNow_wCFlLgGx10J7zP5wsvpukajySESs6QwysT9Ic7KK23KOJ4HnwpTrY/s320/sai60-745501.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_6405673770609200274" /></a></p><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:rgb(7,55,99)"><p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"><b><u><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif;color:black">GURUVAAR PRARTHNA - 06/04/2017<span></span></span></u></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif;color:white">.<span></span></span></u></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><u><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif;color:black"><span><span style="text-decoration:none"> </span></span></span></u></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif"><span> </span></span></i></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:calibri,sans-serif">Our Beloved Sadguru Sainath, please accept our humble prayers on this Holy Day of Guruvaar.
